The campaign's work has now been immortalised at the Mitchell Library.
They have stored and catalogued a range of materials, mainly handmade protest items that were displayed outside Whiteinch Library during the protest period.

You set up a ‘Friends Group’ to support the library and hopefully the staff who work there.
You end up running some sort of ‘service’ from the building after the staff lose their jobs.
Can you see the problem?

Many of us are dog lovers but we need to remember this is nesting time when the aquatic fowl, need to be calm and not stressed. This is to ensure their chicks have a chance.
If your dog is excitable, please keep it under control and away from nesting birds & their young.

In recent years, whenever, @GlasgowCC's plans have threatened to degrade the quality of the park, the locals have been more than ready to come out and protest.

The former Glasgow Protestant Institute for Orphaned and Destitute Girls on Westland Drive in the Whiteinch area of Glasgow. The institute was founded in 1825, but it wasn't until 1891 that this purpose-built home was constructed for it.
